Hi there, my name is Edwin! My experience in Social Work has allowed me to work alongside students of all ages (elementary through college) where we worked on topics such as depressive moods, anxiety, stress, and questions surrounding queer identity. Working with these students allowed us to start conversations about communication skills and triggers that they faced in their day to day life. Working alongside them, we were able to identify what steps they were comfortable doing to implement into their lives to see results.

When people come to therapy, it's as if they are saying, "I really don't want to walk home by myself". There are few opportunities to spend one day per week, dedicated to you (or your family perhaps)...accompanied by someone who is empathetic, non-judgmental, and has reserved a safe space for you to release, explore, & process your thoughts, feelings, fears, reactions, progress, and triumphs, all "without guilt".

As human beings we are constantly evolving and changing depending on our life experiences.

No matter what situations, obstacles or challenges that you may be facing you have the ability to evolve, and gradually change to live the life that will give you the greatest.

Hi, I am Jailene, and I support individuals through symptoms of anxiety, depression, life transitions, academic struggles, or recovering from difficult experiences, such as abuse. There are moments where we feel stuck in life personally or professionally. We all deserve to feel heard and supported when feeling low motivation, easily frustrated, our mind racing, uncontrollable worry, negative self-talk, or dissociation.

There is a bravery in the therapeutic process. A willingness to be open to better understanding of yourself, others and the world around us. A desire to navigate towards the ultimate destination of social-emotional wellness. For each individual, couple, family and system there is a path we have the ability to impact. I aim to be a catalyst along this sometimes simple and often complex journey. My goal is to support, challenge and empower. We will build our therapeutic relationship through thoughtful inquiry and meaningful dialogue that allows us to develop a comprehensive treatment plan for you and/or your loved ones.
